Proof of Labor

Jan 24, 2024

The other day I shoveled so much snow and ice off the driveway, I got dualing charlie horses in my pecs at the same time. I've experienced lots of muscle cramps in my life, but never in my chest. 

Even with all that effort and labor, and pain, I barely cleared away space enough for one car to park, and two car loads of friends and family were coming the next day. 

But I was tired, and my pecs, no more near their glory days of yore, were kaput. Our guests would just have to risk the ice. At least they'd see I tried. 

That night, the temperatures rose from the mid 20's to the mid 40's and it rained, and rained, in typical Washington fashion, eviscerating the snow and ice, and erasing any evidence I had worked at all. 

All I have to show for it is two sore boobs and a story to tell.
